She continued: "As soon as people find out my partner is 62 and I'm 31 they all assume it is for money." "Not every outing is fine dining; sometimes it's more casual. For us it's really about enjoying the experience together, and Tim always takes care of the costs and that's something I really love and admire about him." "For me, it's not about our age difference, it's about the energy a man brings into the relationship. 'I've always believed that a man providing in that way is a natural expression of masculine energy, and it makes me feel cared for and cherished." "He's such a traditional man and that's one of the many reasons I feel so connected to him." "We're actually heading to Japan in a couple of weeks, which we're really excited about."
